| description | This work aims to contribute to the knowledge about the state of acceptance of C015 Eggplant variety, generated by Agrosavia in 2011, under the participatory plant breeding approach with farmers, who selected the material for high yields, the largest number of fruits per plant and lilac color. A study was carried out with 27 farmers selected by the random sampling method in the departments of Córdoba and Sucre of the Caribbean Region of Colombia to whom a survey was applied during 2018. Data were analyzed in the SPSS program with descriptive statistics, measures of central tendency, among which are the average, the median, maximum and minimum values, as well as the contingency table technique. The results showed that on average farmers have been growing eggplants for 11 years and only 30% had knowledge of the C015 variety, but it did not sow it; 34% of those surveyed found out about the existence of the variety through a neighbor. Similarly, 62% affirm that the decisions to plant the variety are made directly by the farmer. It is concluded that the adoption has not been successful, with a tendency to not re-sow (77%) after 5 years of release; the remaining 23% condition the sowing of this material to the availability of certified seed. The declines in acceptance are attributed to demand problems due to a lack of attributes such as shape, size and color. |

El objetivo del presente trabajo es contribuir al conocimiento sobre el estado de adopción de la variedad de berenjena C015, generada por Agrosavia en el año 2011, bajo el enfoque de fitomejoramiento participativo con agricultores, quienes seleccionaron el material por altos rendimientos, mayor número de frutos por planta y coloración lila. Se realizó un estudio con 27 agricultores seleccionados por el método de muestreo al azar, en los departamentos de Córdoba y Sucre de la región Caribe de Colombia, a quienes se aplicó una encuesta durante el año 2018. Los datos se analizaron en el programa SPSS, se les aplicó estadística descriptiva, medidas de tendencia central, entre las cuales están el promedio, la mediana, los valores máximos y mínimos, como también la técnica de tablas de contingencia. Los resultados mostraron que en promedio los agricultores llevan once años cultivando la berenjena y solo un 30 % conoce la variedad C015, pero no la siembra; el 34 % de los encuestados se enteró de la existencia de la variedad por un vecino. Un 62 % afirma que la decisión de sembrar la variedad la toma directamente el agricultor. Se concluye que la adopción no ha sido exitosa, con una tendencia de no volver a sembrar (77 %) después de cinco años de liberada, el 23 % restante condiciona la siembra de este material a la disponibilidad de semilla certificada. Las bajas en la adopción se atribuyen a problemas de demanda, debido a falta de atributos como forma, tamaño y color.
